In my job, there are internet sites for customer to post what their needs are, and it is up to me, to see if I have what they need and then, to quote a price on that.

I thought I could start a new tread on this subject: Each and every one of us, looking to trade or buy a new to us boat, new or used, could use this tread to post our name and contact info, complete description of what we are looking at, in terms of year, length, colors, options, engines, so on and so on, our complete trade in info if we happen to have one, our budget we can spend and everything the could be important.

So this way, instead of surfing the net for hours and hours, not always finding what we are looking for, boat seller could read the request, and if they have what fits our needs, could quote $ on this.

I don’t see anything wrong for boat sellers, also nothing wrong for buyers! In fact boat seller could offer their boat that we could maybe not even see or find on the net!

So, just positive things for everybody! Maybe you don’t agree with this new tread and I would not see why… But if you are looking for a new boat, new or used, let’s try it out! Post your complete info as stated above, and we’ll see!

May I be the first?

Could spend (as low as possible like everyone) 40 to 50 k .

Let's see if it works!!!

Thanks to all!

By the way, I don't want to get in conflict here with OSO classifieds... I'm not ready to officially put my boat up for sale unless I find what I'm looking for...

So, if OSO does not like this tread, would it be a good idea to kinda bring back to swap shop? or post a new '' quote for boat '' section, almost like wanted section? Should I just post in the wanted section?

Wanted section

Hello Jeff,

It sounds like a good Idea to me. It can't hurt. This is what I'm looking for maybe you can help. I'm have no luck finding them. Your avatar shows that you live in Canada.

Thanks Jack

I am looking for a clearwater Florida built boat called FORCE 10. These boats are a cigarette style boat. There was only seven of these boats built. I am looking for 2 boats. Both boats left the Florida area about 1995.I believe they left for Canada. the first boat was a all red hull with black and gold strips. It had a pair of 540cu B B Chevy with speed masters. the name of the boat was called ( JACK'S WILD ) when it left Florida. The second boat was a all white hull with a pair of 420hp B B Chevy with TRS drives. There was no strips on this boat. the name was called ( TROPICAL STORM ) when it left Florida. These boats are not stolen I was the owner of the first boat and a good friend was the owner of the second boat. If you know any Information on these boats please reply. Look in the cigarette section or the Great lakes and Canada section to see what the hull looks like.

Thank you 36FORCE10
